Schweiger S. 102. - Vgl. Dinse S. 201 und Cox II, 334. - "The original of this work, known as Periegesis, was a description of the habitable world written in Greek hexameters by Dionysius Periegetes, also known as Lybicus or Africanus.

The work was popular in ancient times as a school book." (Cox) - Enthält Karten von Europa, Nordafrika, Asien sowie Griechenland und Italien. - Vereinz. gering fleckig, vord. Vorsatzbl. mit zeitgenöss. hs. Exlibris. Einbd. schwach fleckig.
